CBS sports reporting on Cam's injury

[Jmac]

According to CBS sports, the foot injury is not improving and he will be out indefinitely. They claim that is why he is going to the foot specialist. I know there is a post already about the injury, but this may up the ante on what the Panthers do. Opinions: who starts the next 8 games if it is as serious as CBS is reporting.

The season is over if this is true....so Grier after the Titans or Allen.. regardless of it's a win or loss?

Why is the season over?  This is a team game, the QB position is important but if the D can get it together we could still have a very good season.  We are 4-1 in Cams absence I'm not ready to call it a season yet, I don't think any of us should be.  Right now you stick with what has worked and that has been Allen!  There is no reason to put Grier in until we have no shot at a playoff spot.

Is allen the future??? Or third round pick Grier?  They have 8 games to find out.

We don’t have to decide that right now.  There’s no reason to play Grier at this point.

We don't know if either one of them are but in my opinion, while still in the thick of it, this isn't the time to find out.  Stick with what has been working

How good does that 4-1 really look after the Cardinals managed to keep it close with the 49ers while we got drubbed in all phases?

Right. 

However, given how high FO was on Grier going into the draft I would be interested to see how he would do. 

But yes right now (with the exception of the SF game) we have been winning so no change should be made there. If that changes I dont think Allen has a long leash.

So we pumped the Cards. The cards kept is close to the niners, so therefore we should beat the niners handily. 

 

Thats how that works right?!

Season isn't close to over. Play Allen until we are eliminated or Allen objectively stinks.

We could make a run if we beat the Titans + Packers the next two weeks

4-1 looks like 4-1, this is the NFL every week is different

[Mr. Scot]

Their insider, Jason LaCanfora, was actually saying this weeks ago.

LaCanfora is generally kind of hit or miss, but in this case it sadly looks like he's "hit".

I mean we also blew out that same Cards teamwith Allen at QB. You can’t just say, “Oh the Cards kept it close and we got blown out so obviously we are terrible with Allen.”

The 49ers “down” performance is likely much more related to it being TNF on the road while coming off a big win than anything else.

Division game on a Thursday can be a little different.
